Friday

Razor | De Pews | Cream | Irisch Moose | After Shave | TOBS Mr Sidney’s | EDT | Joop! Jump

Quite a nice shave with the De Pews this morning. The little De Pews is ‘The Little Razor That Could’. It’s a Little Champ.

Back to work today after a few days’ sick leave and feeling much better. On the way to work I had to swerve madly to miss a parrot sitting in the middle of the road. He was oblivious to the situation. I hope he appreciated the fact that I put myself at risk to save his little parrot life.

Looking forward to the weekend and Fathers’ day. Hope you all have a nice weekend.

Thank you, Keith, and natural daylight works wonders. That and a little bit of help from Photobucket editing!

Well that's as good a reason as any. Me... I bought it because I liked the bottle, and hence the other scents too!!!
Seriously, I hope yours arrives soon. The Myrsol range is excellent.

I too recently bought some Myrsol aftershaves and the emulsión, too. Of course, "agua de limon" was part of them. It seems we are all crazy for "agua de limon" here!
I know I am going to be quite disappointing, but I choose plastic bottles over glass ones. I know, they look a bit boring and flat, but they however seem to be functional as well.
So far, I tried the "agua de limon" and the "emulsión" (waiting to be tested: blue and F/Extra) and I can say agua de limon seems to be very effective and the emulsión is an excellent product.
Compared to my beloved Floid aftershaves, I however consider "agua de limon" a little less performing and refreshing. My opinion, of course. We will see what happens with the other two.

I totally concur with your opinion. I have been a long time user of all the Floids, and although Myrsol is a excellent product, I still rate the Floids higher.
